Ditched Twitter Blue. Originally had it for fewer ads on mobile, but I was still seeing a ton.
I'm no longer interested in paying, especially when you throw in everything else Twitter has been screwing up.

Good move. It was a money grab from the beginning and hasn't gotten any better. In addition Twitter's algo is being tailored towards ONLY boosting blue's which is programmed censorship for anyone not willing to pay to reach their followers. It's absurd.
Iâm always surprised when people complain about adds on Twitter. I get very few adds, maybe itâs because of living in Europe ÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ however I just find the amount of bad takes insufferable atm.
you were still seeing ads because twitter blue is a way for people less price sensitive to segment themselves as such
your attention was being sold as far more valuable than others'
Y compris désormais un moyen de pistage de toutes données personnelles tel qu'en RPCP pour le nouveau Twitter Blue de M Tweet ce dont j'ai dû lire avant- hier . Odell l'a fusillé en ligne via deux de ses tweets.
Je vous encourage Ă le lire ce Tweet
They never implemented that as far as I know. Itâs still âcoming soonâ
Twiddler is a great place to go when you want to see conversations from 21 hours ago by people who never respond to you and where all the usual comments have already been posted and yours is guaranteed to sit unliked for all eternity.
Maybe the original language changed-I swear it promised fewer ads. What's crazy is from December until early February I saw zero ads on mobile!
Either way, I don't think Blue is worth it. The only good thing is it devalued the blue check. When everyone has one no one is "special."
When everyone is special⊠on one is.
Blue check hyperinflation incoming.
Bonjour serait-il possible s'il vous possible que vous demandiez Ă Odell de partager un des tweets d'avant hier!?
Je fus choquĂ©e de lire les dessous du nouveau Twitter Bleue de M. Tweet et qui va Ă l'encontre de tout droit, nous ne vivons point en Chine. Si toutefois M. Tweet n'a pas depuis bloquĂ© ce tweet voire son compte . đ
Do TwitterBlue users get to share links to Substack?
This is an ad for Nostr !!!
Paying to have your data controlled just does not make financial sense. That is only the first issue I have on the pay for blue âïž

regardless, itâs a lie if every twitter blue/gold tweet is paid promoted reach. Just because an ad isnât targeted doesnât mean itâs not an ad.
I use Twitter like newspapers used to be, since i have been banned 4 times already, i go and read the people i like to read. But most i like are here now. đ
